I'm a firm believer in the sticking principles. Tom B. (LongLine)

Welcome to site. Glad it has helped you. Please let us know how you do next time out. You'll probably teach us a few things. Tom B. (LongLine)

Welcome to the site. We won't hold bass & walleye fishing against you. Scroll down the main page & you'll find threads about those "little guys". Don't worry too much about the size of your rig. Just keep a good eye on the weather & pick you days. Tom B. (LongLine)

I-Bay 6/1 AM

Got a late start this morning. 2 boats had launched ahead of me & were gone. Sun had just risen but everything had a golden shine to it. We had a visitor on the river today: They were doing some trawling off the Genny in 25-35 MOW (meters of water) Anyways, 64F in the river. Dredging still going on. Obviously a clear sky & very little wind. Took a left again & headed out. Surface temp dropped to low 50’s. Put in at 80 off the stacks & headed out. Made it to 170 FOW then turned around & back in. Played in 110 & went 2 for 4. 1 King, (9#) 1 steelhead (7 #). All off the rigg’r, all down only 15 ft, medium length lead. All on Bloody Blk/slvr spoon. Lots of swirling on the surface. Had one on a ways back and he jumped three times, spit the hook and jumped 3 more times. Guess he was saying: oh well, next time…. Pulled them up around 10:30. Luck to all, Tom B. (LongLine)

All the fuel lines intact? You don't smell any gas(olene) do you? Fuel has to be going somewhere. Anti-siphon valve? Carburetor hoses? Hose clamps? Tom B. (LongLine)

Wire dipseys or jets would probably be the easiest for you to set up to get some depth. Most baitfish come up at night then slink back down after sunrise. Fish follow them. It's very easy for guys to be fishing below the fish. Some guys swear by running meat behind flashers, but you have to get the roll just right. I'd suggest you start out with spoons. As to speed, watch your lure in the water. If spinning out of control either flatten it out or slow down. 2 1/2 -3 mph. (not sure what that is in knots) Tom B. (LongLine)

I don't think I can help you as I've never fished off a "yak". But lines - something in the 12-20 Lb wt class will get you going. Spoon favorites include Northern Kings, Dreamweavers, R&R's. Silvers, greens & glows work well. 3 1/4"r bigger. Plugs include Rapalas, Rebels, Bombers - Oranges, Blk/Slvr & ocassionally gold/Blk. Sinking & jointed. You'll probably need some weight to get everything down, unless you're out before dawn. Good Luck. Suggest you read up in the report section for how the guys put things together. Tom b. (LongLine)

I like clear. Water out deep is clearer than ever. Tom B. (LongLine)

If there's a lot of baitfish, they're not off the Genny. I went almost 17 miles this morning & never saw a pod. Check out the pix in my Russell report this morning. All the fish were caught at the same waypoint, same depth, same lure which is pretty rare for being so far out. The Brown's a porker but the rest are pretty skinny. You can almost see the ribs on the one and the Laker's almost 30" long. Tom B. (LongLine)
